March 16, 200719 yr I was very impressed with Xavier's free throw shooting. Getting into the bonus with 14 minutes to go saved them. I really liked BYU's offense. The players were constantly in motion.
March 16, 200719 yr I really liked BYU's offense. ...it does help that they were making 3's from the Food Court.
March 16, 200719 yr It was well worth getting home late last night after watching the X-BYU game. I loved it when Thad walked into the arena during the X game and half the fans booed (X) and others cheered. IMO more boos than cheers. If Oden guards Doellman, then I think Justin will get the better of him because he can shoot from the outside and that will make Oden come out and guard him and leave the inside open for Cage and Cole. GO X!!

GO X!! I'm 99% sure that OSU will either play a modified zone or they'll have Oden on Cole. I'm sure #3 for the Buckeyes (Ivan something or other) will get the responsibility of guarding JD.

I'm sure #3 for the Buckeyes (Ivan something or other) will get the responsibility of guarding JD. I agree they will most likely play that half court to 3/4 quater court trap. Xavier will need a BIG game from Duncan tomorrow.
March 16, 200719 yr Xavier will need a BIG game from Duncan tomorrow. Hope not, because I don't think he is capable of that. I'd settle for Small-Game Stan having a huge game. I'm fairly sure we'll see a Love sighting tomorrow as well, him and his 5 fouls. :thumb:

If OSU does try to play man and Xavier had a small lineup in (drew, stan, JC, JD and josh) then Oden will have to guard someone. I agree with seeing Love in there for his 5 fouls! It should be a good one, hopefully the Muskies can pull it off.
March 16, 200719 yr I was gald X. won this for two reasons. 1-I was rooting for them 2-They get their wish---OHIO STATE.
March 17, 200719 yr ...it does help that they were making 3's from the Food Court. A couple of Rose's 3's came on the secondary break. In their half court, they were in constant motion. They just got out-athleted.
